Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 frozen banana, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Equipment

  • high-speed blender
  • measuring cups and spoons
  • Rubber spatula
  • tall serving glass

Method

  1. Add almond milk, frozen banana slices, and almond butter to a blender. Blend on low for 10 seconds to break down the banana.
  2. Add vanilla protein powder, honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. Blend on medium until smooth, about 20 seconds.
  3. Toss in ice cubes and blend on high for 30 seconds, or until the shake is thick and creamy.
  4. Pause blending and scrape down the sides with a spatula if needed to ensure even mixing.
  5. Pour into a tall glass and sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top for garnish. Serve immediately.

Notes

Customize your shake with cashew butter, rolled oats for thickness, or stevia for a low-sugar version. Freeze leftovers in popsicle molds for a protein-packed frozen treat, or turn shake cubes into coffee creamers. Add spinach post-workout or a cinnamon rim for dessert vibes!
